A friend who seems a little different.
A student who has been keeping to themselves.
Someone who says, “I’m fine,” but doesn’t seem fine.
You don’t have to have all the answers. Sometimes the most important thing you can do is listen, take them seriously, and help connect them with someone who can help.
At Westville Public Schools, our Care Team is here for our students. That team includes our Social Work Department, School Counselor, CREOKS Counseling, and Administration. More info here: https://www.westville.k12.ok.us/page/family-support-center
If you or someone you know needs immediate support, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
Keep checking in. Keep listening. Keep showing up. You never know when it might matter most. 💜

September is here, and what better way to kick off the month than with a good book? 📚💜
Today is National Read a Book Day; we’re excited to share our September Book of the Month selections! Each month, we’ll feature books for both students and adults, and we’d love for our Westville community to read along with us!
📖 Student Books
Orange Pear Apple Bear by Emily Gravett
Recommended for our youngest readers — Pre-K through 2nd grade. A clever, minimalist picture book that uses just four main words—orange, pear, apple, and bear—to tell a silly, visual story through changing word order, punctuation, and watercolor illustrations
The Wild Robot by Peter Brown
Recommended for students in 3rd–7th grade. An unforgettable story about friendship, nature, survival, and finding where you belong. It’s also a wonderful choice for families to read together and discuss!
📕 Adult Book
The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise by Dan Gemeinhart
A heartwarming and adventurous story about family, friendship, healing, and finding your way home: it’s a thoughtful read with plenty of heart and a great choice for our Westville staff and community.
We’d love for you to read these books along with us! If you’ve already read one of our September selections, tell us what you thought in the comments. 📚
Our goal is to encourage a love of reading—not just at school, but throughout our entire Westville community!
Have a suggestion for a future Book of the Month? Let us know in the comments!
It’s a busy week for our Yellowjackets! 🐝💜 Check out the schedule, support our students, and show your Yellowjacket Pride! 💜💛

Tuesday, September 8 • 6:30 PM

Once a Yellowjacket, always a Yellowjacket. 💜💛
Westville’s own Elias Vaughan had an outstanding finish at the 74th Annual Cherokee National Holiday Veterans 5K & Fun Run!
Elias finished 1st in the 9–12 age bracket in 22:07 and placed an impressive 48th overall out of about 800 runners of all ages!
That’s an incredible accomplishment!
